数字技术力量下的乡村重构

随着数字技术逐渐深入到乡村生产生活的各个方面,乡村社会关系及空间意义发生重构。信息化冲击下的乡村空间转变不仅体现在物质方面,其社会文化空间意义及人地关系地域系统的重构在内生逻辑上重塑乡村话语权力和主体身份。论文通过探讨数字技术与乡村发展的多维关系及其对乡村产生的多重效应,关注数字技术带来的自由与异化、数字经济引发的话语与权力流变及乡村女性主体地位和身份的重构,解释了数字技术作为非人类行动者的主体性及其建构下的乡村日常经济生活和社会关系,拟为乡村性的分析框架提供有益的补充,为数字乡村建设和乡村振兴提供新的理论借鉴。     

太原东山二叠纪地层中发现最古老大孢子“球果”及其进化意义

与轴相连的苏铁大孢子叶第一次发现太原东册的下二叠系地层中，它出现如此之早，表明这种球果状的结构可能是所有苏铁类雌性生殖器官的祖先形式，苏铁也可能通过古地中海洋流从华北迁移到欧洲。     

三疣梭子蟹雌雄隔离养殖技术研究

在193亩池塘中开展三疣梭子蟹雌雄分养和雌雄混养对比试验。其中雌雄分养面积93亩，亩产商品蟹182公斤，平均壳宽12．6厘米，平均个体重230．1克，成活率40．2％。与雌雄混养相比，亩产量提高了53．6％，成活率提高了1.51倍。专家鉴定认为，梭子蟹雌雄分养，方式新颖，效果明显，技术水平属国内先进。

Geography and Planning: Some Perspectives

This paper analyzes the migration of Puerto Rican-born women from the United States to Puerto Rico using longitudinal data. We hypothesize that sojourn length in the United States is a function of both structural (macro-level economic and cultural factors) and behavioral (micro-level life-cycle experiences and personal attributes) variables. We test these hypotheses by estimating a proportional hazards model. The parameter estimates of this model indicate that sojourn length in the United States, and thus the decision to return to Puerto Rico, is a function of wage trends and community characteristics on the mainland plus a number of individual attributes that include education, marriage, and childbirth.     

Neighborhood Factors Associated with Same-Sex Households in U.S. Cities

Quality of life cannot be fully described by the availability of regional amenities. Instead, it also depends on the quality of neighborhoods and housing. In connection with discussions on knowledge workers, not much systematic research has been done on the characteristics of neighborhoods characterized by high proportions of same-sex households. By analyzing census tracts within select counties across the United States using Poisson regressions, this article investigates what factors are related to the number of same-sex households.

Engendering local government in post-apartheid South Africa – Experiences of female councillors in Durban (1996–2000)

This paper examines the participation of women in local government in the Durban Metro Area in the post-apartheid era. The primary purpose is to ascertain the degree of representation of women in local government structures and their influence on decision-making processes. The paper further attempts to determine the gender sensitivity of the male counterparts and their level of collaboration with female councillors. The gendered needs of women in local government and the various problems they experienced in office are highlighted. Finally, strategies to increase the participation of women in local government as well as to eradicate impediments, which they encounter, are advocated. The paper revealed that women have been under-represented in local government. Women who are elected into local government are discriminated against on grounds of gender and often race. They tend to be side-lined and marginalised in decision-making and in positions of power. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
